NanoReg, publisher of the NanoReg Report, is a professional services firm specializing in the application of laws and regulations related to the development and use of nanoscale materials throughout the nanotechnology value chain. John DiLoreto, NanoReg’s founder, has been instrumental in bringing together producers and users of nanoscale materials with government policy makers and non-governmental organizations to address growing environmental, health and safety concerns about the products of nanotechnology.
Mr. DiLoreto created and managed the American Chemistry Council's Nanotechnology Panel, which was the chemical industry's first organized attempt to address scientific and regulatory issues related to nanoscale materials. As Director of the panel, an open dialogue was established with policymakers at the Environmental Protection Agency and the panel now enjoys a position as a key component in standard-setting discussions. Mr. DiLoreto’s experience managing chemical industry consortia provides an excellent resource for the NanoReg Report with a working knowledge of a wide range of chemical regulatory issues including TSCA (the Toxic Substances Control Act) and FIFRA (the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act).
As a national leader in the effort to engage industry in nanotechnology environmental, health and safety (EHS) issues, Mr. DiLoreto has been recognized by Lux Research as a key player in the nanotechnology EHS debate and has been identified as an industry expert in its highly influential research reports. As a principle of NanoReg with a broad network of experienced regulatory and EHS professionals, he continues to work with nanotechnology firms and trade associations to assist companies in a variety of industrial sectors throughout the nanotechnology value chain.
With a history of working closely with producers and users of nanotechnology products and having established relationships with regulatory officials, NanoReg is uniquely qualified to identify key issues and participate in the multistakeholder dialogue that will eventually define regulatory requirements for nanoscale materials.
